Genes affected

MSH6 (HGNC:7329): (mutS homolog 6) This gene encodes a member of the DNA mismatch repair MutS family. In E. coli, the MutS protein helps in the recognition of mismatched nucleotides prior to their repair. A highly conserved region of approximately 150 aa, called the Walker-A adenine nucleotide binding motif, exists in MutS homologs. The encoded protein heterodimerizes with MSH2 to form a mismatch recognition complex that functions as a bidirectional molecular switch that exchanges ADP and ATP as DNA mismatches are bound and dissociated. Mutations in this gene may be associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer, colorectal cancer, and endometrial cancer. Transcripts variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

MSH6 links:

FBXO11 (HGNC:13590): (F-box protein 11) This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Fbxs class. It can function as an arginine methyltransferase that symmetrically dimethylates arginine residues, and it acts as an adaptor protein to mediate the neddylation of p53, which leads to the suppression of p53 function. This gene is known to be down-regulated in melanocytes from patients with vitiligo, a skin disorder that results in depigmentation. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with chronic otitis media with effusion and recurrent otitis media (COME/ROM), a hearing loss disorder, and the knockout of the homologous mouse gene results in the deaf mouse mutant Jeff (Jf), a single gene model of otitis media. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Jun 16, 2023	In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 28932927 (2018)), colorectal cancer (PMID: 29575718 (2018)), and skin cutaneous melanoma (PMID: 29684080 (2018)). In a breast cancer association study, the variant was reported in healthy individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/MSH6)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000023 (3/128894 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Mar 08, 2023	This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 240 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 28932927, 29575718) and skin melanoma (PMID: 29684080). This variant has been identified in 5/282444 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jul 06, 2023	The p.R240Q variant (also known as c.719G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 719. The arginine at codon 240 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in one individual from a cohort of 60 unrelated probands diagnosed with colorectal cancer and meeting Lynch syndrome criteria. Of note, this individual was also reported to carry an unspecified pathogenic alteration and had no constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) features, however phase was not provided (Schneider NB et al. Cancer Med, 2018 May;7:2078-2088). This alteration has been detected in a Brazilian cohort of 65 patients meeting Amsterdam or Bethesda criteria (InSiGHT. Fam Cancer. 2015 Jun;14 Suppl 1:1-91). This variant has also been identified in at least 2 probands whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumors demonstrated loss of MSH6 expression by immunohistochemistry (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Variant summary: MSH6 c.719G>A (p.Arg240Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251046 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.719G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (Soares_2017, Schneider_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
